I am an experienced English teacher who can teach up to GCSE in English Language and Literature. I have nearly 15 experience working with a whole range of young people both in classroom settings and 1 to 1. I have a proven track record of great results!
I have over forty years' experience of private tuition to students aged 2 to adult. I have taught maths and English to all ages, including preparing students for entrance exams. I also teach science up to KS3. I have worked with those for whom English is not their first language, to help them improve their skills. I also have extensive experience of working with students with various kinds of special educational need such as autism, ADHD, delayed development, etc.
I take pride in creating a programme of work which addresses the needs of each individual and helps them to build their confidence as well as competence.
I work in my homes in Crofton Wakefield and Hartford Cheshire, the student's home if not too far away or online using Zoom.
I can offer small group tuition. Prices on application.
After achieving QTS in 1999, I taught in several primary schools for five years, covering all ages (from Nursery to Year 6) and a wide range of abilities (from working towards level 1 up to level 6), in the full range of core and foundation subjects. However, having a predominantly financial/ numerical background, I decided to focus my teaching on mathematics and commenced teaching mathematics in secondary schools from September 2004, covering a wide range of abilities from below NC level 3 to GCSE Higher level.
From May 2007 to August 2019, I was employed by Kip McGrath (Keighley), tutoring students (during evenings and on Saturdays) in Maths (aged 6 to 18 years, at KS1 level up to GCSE Higher level), English (aged 6 to 11 years, at KS1 &2) and in verbal and non-verbal reasoning, in preparation for 11+ High School Entrance Exams. This involved supporting students in small groups working on individual, predominantly computer-based, learning programmes, to enable them to catch-up or improve their skills in specific areas, whilst working towards their personal targets/ goals, e.g. in KS2 SATs, 11+ Entrance Exams or GCSE exams. This experience inspired me to set up my own private tutoring business, which I have been running since April 2014, providing tuition to individual students in maths (aged 7 – 18+), English (ages 7-13), preparing students (aged 9/12) for local High School Entrance Exams and preparing adult learners for Functional Skills exams in both Literacy and Numeracy.
Having studied many courses covering a wide range of disabilities, including ASD, Dyslexia, ADHD and Sensory Processing Disorder, I believe I have a good understanding of, and empathy for, students with SEND and SEMH. To this end, I have taught many students with a range of learning difficulties/ barriers to learning and feel that I have made a considerable difference to each student’s enjoyment of mathematics and life-outcomes. I believe that my own enjoyment of learning enables me to encourage and motivate others to successfully engage in the learning process.
During the Covid-19 pandemic, I have delivered many lessons via Skype and Zoom and feel that I have become confident and competent in using these platforms for teaching students remotely and would be happy to continue to do so if required.

I have 15 years’ experience teaching English, including special needs, both in schools and adult education. I’m a qualified Specialist Dyslexia Tutor and work with both children and adults who have dyslexia and/or other SEN. I can offer support with memory, processing and organisation in addition to reading, writing and spelling. The methods used are multisensory and structured. Prior to teaching I always fully assess to identify strengths and areas of development. From this I create an individualised learning plan.
Finally, I am a professional member of the British Dyslexia Association participating in regular Continuing Professional Development to ensure my knowledge and methods stay up to date.

I am a passionate and experienced English tutor dedicated to helping individuals of all ages and backgrounds improve their language skills. With a deep love for the English language and a commitment to fostering a positive and effective learning environment, I take pride in empowering my students to achieve their language learning goals. My teaching philosophy is built on the belief that learning should be engaging, tailored to individual needs, and focused on practical application. I combine structured lessons with interactive and real-world scenarios to ensure that my students not only grasp the fundamentals of English but also develop the confidence to use the language effectively. I have strong communication skills and the ability to adapt teaching methods to suit diverse learning styles of students. I am fluent in Hindi as well so if any explanation is required to a native hindi speaker about concepts in English then I can help with that as well. My lessons are tailored to each student's unique needs and goals, creating a supportive and encouraging environment where questions and mistakes are welcomed as opportunities for growth.

Barnoldswick, UK.
Private online tutor and experienced teacher. Tutoring primary maths and or English. Based in Barnsley.
As a professional qualified teacher I have worked in a wide range of educational establishments teaching various levels of ability and students with disabilities for decades. I have successfully tutored 121 and taught English to small group workshops in different environments. I believe all learning must be fun and my methods enable students to be motivated, achieve and engage in their learning. My passion for teaching is reflected in my long years of successful experience and student achievements. In addition, I have taught adults in tertiary education and ESOL learners, for example in migrant communities to integrate within British society. I am also available to help and proof-read educational texts such as disertations for degree level students.
Having studied English Literature and Language at Leeds University, I then combined my passion for English with my passion for helping young people and became a school teacher.
During my time as a teacher I have progressed to the point where I now lead a large English faculty in a secondary school. I have over 15 years of teaching both English Literature ans Language and regularly see students under my tutelage achieve excellent results at both GCSE and A Level.
I have developed a range of methods and techniques to ensure students are engaged with their learning - when this happens, any barriers to learning are broken down and rapid progress can take place.
It was a long journey, from Sidmouth to Halifax via Singapore, Greece, Spain, Finland, Brunei, Abu Dhabi, Saudi Arabia and Libya. I have worked for the military (5 years), oil and gas industry (13 years), academic institutions (15 years) and other stuff including preparation for English GCSE, UCLES and IELTS exams (the missing years). I spent the last 12 years of my career working as an English lecturer at Tampere University in Finland. Whilst there, we had the time and opportunity to organise the thesis-writing courses online, so by the time Covid arrived and everyone went into the remote 'online teaching' mode, our courses and materials were already established and ongoing. Covid allowed us to tweak the methodology and presentation tools, so that I now have a tried and tested method for teaching academic writing online, which is what I now specialise in. I also offer a proofreading service using a similar approach, which is also very effective.
So, if you have to write an English article or text, or if you want to generally improve your English writing and presentation skills, please get in touch. The first online lesson will be a GTKY session (free) during which we can get to know each other and set some parameters and targets for the course; much better than trying to explain it all in writing. If we find we are mutually compatible, then we'll set up a schedule and get started. I look forward to heaing from you.
